Opinions exclusively of my own and of voices in my head.

Autism, communism, arthitism, cannabism.

  • Reddit looks to Al search as its next big opportunity

    Jump

  • Pretending something doesn’t exist doesn’t make it go away unless we’re talking about celebrities. Reddit is one of the biggest forums on the internet, of course this is newsworthy.

  • War in Ukraine: Attacks on power grids may violate international law, experts say

    Jump

  • There’s no such thing as international law, turns out.

  • "Kaczyński zaczął, potem ruszyła lawina". To efekt nacisku Amerykanów na PiS

    Jump

  • Nie jestem nawet przekonany, że oni potrzebują polityków do przygotowywania materiałów audycji. Historie można wysysać z palca dużo mniejszym wysiłkiem, a finalnie i tak chodzi o nakręcanie FOMO u słuchaczy, którzy mają zostać tym zachęceni do subskrypcji z dostępem do całych odcinków.

  • ‘A Man on the Inside’ Renewed for Third Season at Netflix

    Jump

  • I kind of grew bored by season 2. Which is a weird thing to say about something from Schur. Weirdly unimaginative.

  • I used an original iPod Nano in 2026, and it worked surprisingly well

    Jump

  • Charging, syncing and Bluetooth compatibility will be a bit of a challenge for most.

  • "Kaczyński zaczął, potem ruszyła lawina". To efekt nacisku Amerykanów na PiS

    Jump

  • Stan Wyjątkowy to dziwna audycja. W podcaście regularnie padają nieweryfikowalne tezy, doprawione aurą konspiracji, a te które są weryfikowalne, z czasem okazują się być mało trafne. To takie fanfiction więc chyba lepiej nie dawać im uwagi (dziękuję za link do kopii).

  • Musk’s French X Office Searched in Prosecutor’s Grok, Bias Probe

    Jump

  • France definitely understands how to negotiate with the US of A-holes.

  • In December 2025, 97% of all new cars sold in Norway were fully electric

    Jump

  • Heavily subsidised by selling oil to less oil-rich countries. At least some money goes to people rather than a local monarch. Good for Norway, who also lucked on hydro power, but if they really cared about the environment they’d actually stop drilling.

  • Bulgarian Torrent Giants Zamunda, Zelka, and ArenaBG Seized in Joint U.S.-Bulgarian Operation

    Jump

  • To keep their membership in WTO. Even if the US exerts massive influence over WTO it’s still the only general trade agreement most countries recognise.

  • First look at Henry Cavill's Highlander confirms wet hair, access to swords

    Jump

  • The first one is genuinely good. It’s the later ones that require significant amounts of irony and/or drugs.

  • The job losses are real — but the AI excuse is fake

    Jump

  • They weren’t that bad just before 1929 either.

  • Apple’s new iPhone and iPad security feature limits cell networks from collecting precise location data

    Jump

  • You didn’t locate people at that concert because you knew they were at this concert beforehand. You wouldn’t be able to locate them more precisely using cell network.

  • Apple’s new iPhone and iPad security feature limits cell networks from collecting precise location data

    Jump

  • If there’s a Stingray in your neighbourhood and it wasn’t meant for you then law enforcement started to replace regular cell network with Stingrays, which is unlikely. A phone knows it’s dialling emergency number because it’s preprogrammed into SIM. Also, a phone making emergency number call doesn’t have a preference as to which network will be utilised so a Stingray doesn’t have a benefit of overriding your own cell network as easily.

    I might be talking out of my own butt but even US operators were in a bit of trouble because of this historically because they were able to locate just 20% of emergency calls originating on their own networks.

  • Apple’s new iPhone and iPad security feature limits cell networks from collecting precise location data

    Jump

  • They’ve been one big tech company that historically resists this kind of pressure.

  • Apple’s new iPhone and iPad security feature limits cell networks from collecting precise location data

    Jump

  • This thing is supposed to prevent you from getting tracked via cell network. If someone is on to you and is also capable of deploying Stingray in your area then they know about your location about as much as they could from the cell network.

  • Apple’s new iPhone and iPad security feature limits cell networks from collecting precise location data

    Jump

  • I think they meant that when you call emergency services then this protection is disabled, probably temporarily.

  • Sony is Quietly Suggesting PS4 Players Upgrade to PS5 Consoles

    Jump

  • Hard drive in PS4 is user-replaceable so at least there’s that. Putting even the cheapest SATA SSD decreases load times considerably too which should help in stretching its lifespan a bit.

  • Valve Facing £656 Million Class Action Lawsuit

    Jump

  • So you don’t see a problem with Valve’s solution not being a solution to everyone being locked in their platform. Valve monopoly is based on their gatekeeper status to the defacto industry standard game ownership ledger.

    You must have loved Internet Explorer.

  • Valve's Proton 10.0-4 Released With More Windows Games Now Running On Linux

    Jump

  • They paid way less money than CodeWeavers who released their work freely as well.

    I’m not able to use it for games outside of Steam because Steam is a monopoly and loads of games release exclusively for it.
